I would like to change the backcolor of the cell in a row based upon the value of a checkbox in another cell. The value of cell 2 would be a checkbox, so it is either true or false. If it is true, then color the backcolor of just cell 1?

Using Visual Basic,change the backcolor of the upper left header cell (.rows(-1).columns(-1)) of a DataGridView? I would like to use a different color to indicate to the user that he/she can right click a row or column header to access the Context Menu Strip.

My application is in VS2008 coded in Vb.net. I have a datagridView which is getting populated from the Database.I has RegNo,RollNo,Name etc fields.The data in the Name column of database is coming from 3 columns of a certain table from database. This is how im concatinating it and displaying in datagrid.

My issue is i want to save this data in some other table which also has Surname,FirstName,LastName columns in the database. Im not able to split the column data present in datagridview cell into three fields. For Example:Name column in datagridview is having Name : Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar. I want to divide this string into three like : Sachin for Surname,Ramesh for First Name,Tendulkar for LastName.

As a bonus to the project I'm currently working on, the people would like it if I could change the background color of individual table cells depending on what their value is. So in the RadGrid_ItemDataBound event handler I have, I'm trying to set the BackColor of the cell if the cell's text equals a certain value from a dataset in my database. My current code is like so:

I am attempting to copy the value of the TimeStamp in cell A6 which has the NOW() formula into cell A5 Based on a change in Cell A4. The catch is I don't want it to update every time the sheet is recalculated due to updating links in other cells on the sheet. ONLY when Cell A4 Changes. What do I do?

I'm building an app that is a basic daytimer type of app. My problem is that I can't get the textbox(Textbox1) backcolor and text to change when I need it to. For instance, if there are events for January 12 and the user clicks on the Jan 12 link in the Calendar control, if there are any events in the SQL table for that day it should populate the appropriate times. The funny, or not so funny, thing is that I have another textbox named "TheEvent" that I can change the backcolor and text on with the code below and it works fine.[code]...

I have a problem with changing the color of a button (in vb.net). I have searched the web and plenty of people are willing to tell me HOW TO change the color but my problem is - it doesn't. I say it doesn't, it does when it has finished the rest of the code in the Sub. Can anyone furnish me with an explanation please as to why it doesn't happen when I ask? I'm using Visual Studio 2008

I look for way of easy change ToolStrip colour from horribel blue to any other color. I try make gradient image in memory for set BackgroundImage property but cannot know way to make image gradient for memory.

Ok here is the problem I have. On the tab control in visual basic 2010 there does not seem to be an option to change backcolor. I have searched the web for 6 hours (no joke actually 6 hours) but I have not been successful.

I'm trying to change the existing 10 labels color on my form at runtime they are named this way (label1,label2,label3...label10) however i haven't bin able to successfully do it so far. Here is the code:

I would like to change backcolor of current row in datagridview. Now this thing must work even if i change row trough keyboard, so click event doesn't do the trick for me.The thing is... i would like to accomplish something similar like the code below but on diferent event

In WinForms (Vb.Net / Framework 3.5), I've created a BindableListView control that has a DataSource property that accepts IDataReader's, DataTable's, Array's, Generic Lists and Single objects. I also added the ability to alternate colors when the data is bound to the ListView (I put in sorting also by default with support for numeric & date time). What I have not been able to figure out yet is how to change the selected item's color from the System color (without changing the system color which I don't want to do). I've used the ItemSelectionChanged and SelectedIndexChanged to change the BackColor of the ListViewItem but the selected color always overrides the BackColor (HideSelection doesn't work because it only does that when the control loses focus). My question, Is there a way to change the selected items color (without drawing it myself)?

When I change the BackColor for a Form, and then add new buttons, they have by default the same BackColor as the Form itself. That does not show on my Windows 7 development computer, but when I use the program on an XP machine, all buttons appear the same color as the form.

I correct this by changing the button's BackColor property to ButtonFace, but it is a pain to do it all the time and some times it gets past me and a wrong color button goes into the application.

Is there a way to change how this works so all buttons are placed with ButtonFace BackColor by default?

I have several list boxes on a form, the items collection is filled at design time and the selectedIndex is changed at run time. when I change the SelectedIndex the backcolor of the control changes. I don't want this to happen.
